35 I have seen the ruthless, evil man

Spreading out like a luxuriant tree in its native soil.+

38 But all the transgressors will be destroyed;

The future of wicked people will be cut off.+

12 You are righteous, O Jehovah,+ when I make my complaint to you,

When I speak about matters of justice with you.

But why is the way of wicked ones successful,+

And why are the treacherous unworried?

 3 But you know me well, O Jehovah,+ you see me;

You have examined my heart and found it in union with you.+

Single them out like sheep for slaughtering,

And set them apart for the day of killing.
